To the theory of helical waveguides

It makes sense to consider a helical waveguide with a fine pitch approximately, replacing the turns with anisotropic conductivity: infinite along the turns and zero across them. This approach has been known for a long time, but calculation formulas within it have only been obtained for the case where the winding does not contain a dielectric core. This paper addresses this gap in the theory: calculation formulas are obtained for the case where the waveguide contains a dielectric with a certain permittivity and magnetic permeability. An equation determining the slowing factor is found, and a method for its numerical solution is proposed. Explicit formulas are obtained for the wave impedance.

On Symmetry Groups of Some Quadratic Programming Problems

Solution and analysis of mathematical programming problems may be simplified when these problems are symmetric under appropriate linear transformations. In particular, a knowledge of the symmetries may help reduce the problem dimension, cut the search space by linear cuts or obtain new local optima from the ones previously found. While the previous studies of symmetries in the mathematical programming usually dealt with permutations of coordinates of the solutions space, the present paper considers a larger group of invertible linear transformations. We study a special case of the quadratic programming problem, where the objective function and constraints are given by quadratic forms, and the sum of all matrices of quadratic forms, involved in the constraints, is a positive definite matrix. In this setting, it is sufficient to consider only orthogonal transformations of the solution space. In this group of orthogonal transformations, we describe the structure of the subgroup which gives the symmetries of the problem. Besides that, a method for finding such symmetries is outlined, and illustrated in two simple examples.

To the theoretical description of the losses in inductance coils

The article discusses a theory that allows to describe losses in conductors taking into account the skin effect and the proximity effect. The developed theory is applied to inductance coils. In contrast to the classical Butterworth theory the condition of the strong skin effect, which is frequent in practice, is introduced from the very beginning. This approach makes possible to obtain extremely simple formulas, which show that Q-factor of a coil is determined mainly by the diameter of its winding.

Elastic Boundary Conditions in the Theory with Second Gradients in the Thermodynamic Potential

When describing elastic deformations of a body sometimes it is worth to take in account elastic spatial dispersion. If spatial dispersion is weak, as usually happens, then it can be reduced to dependence of thermodynamic potential on strain gradients. Such a dependence may be worth in association with small body size which imply large gradients. Besides, the inclusion of this dispersion leads to physical phenomena absent without it. An example of the latter is flexoelectricity. Remarkable fact is that while the derivation of differential equations of elastic equilibrium can be made by ordinary means in this case, the derivation of boundary conditions for them is less trivial task. This is due to the fact that strain gradients should be represented in terms of second gradients of independently varied elastic displacements. Detailed consideration of this problem is the subject of this paper.

Impact of surface phenomena on direct bulk flexoelectric effect in finite samples

In the framework of a continuum theory, it is shown that the direct flexoelectric response of a finite sample essentially depends on the surface polarization energy, even in the thermodynamic limit where the body size tends to infinity. It is found that a modification of the surface energy can lead to a change of the polarization response by a factor of two. The origin of the effect is an electric field produced by surface dipoles induced by the strain gradient. The unexpected sensitivity of the polarization response to the surface energy in the thermodynamic limit is conditioned by the fact that the moments of the surface dipoles may scale as the body size.

On the Continual Theory of Flexoelectric Deformations

In many cases the correct theoretical description of flexoelectricity requires the consideration of the finite size of a body and is reduced to the solution of boundary problems for partial differential equations. Generally speaking, in this case one should solve jointly the equations of polarization equilibrium and equations of elastic equilibrium. However, due to the fact that typically flexoelectric moduli are very small, usually one can consider the solution of polarization equilibrium equations at a given elastic strain (direct flexoelectric effect) or the solution of elastic equilibrium equations at given polarization (converse flexoelectric effect). Derivation of the polarization equilibrium equations and boundary conditions for them can be made in the quite usual way. Solution of these equations usually is not too difficult problem. On the contrary description of converse flexoelectric effect is more complicated problem. Inter alia effective solution of corresponded boundary problems requires the development of special mathematical methods. The subject of this paper is a detailed discussion of the relevant theory focuses on the converse flexoelectric effect. It is also considered some particular examples illustrating the application of the general theory.

On the flexoelectric deformations of finite size bodies

Exact equations describing flexoelectric deformation in solids, derived previously within the framework of a continuum media theory, are partial differential equations of the fourth order. They are too complex to be used in the cases interesting for applications. In this paper, using the fact of smallness of the elastic moduli of a higher order, simplified equations are proposed. Solution of the exact equations is approximately represented as a sum of two parts: the first part obeys one-dimensional differential equations and exponentially decays near surface, the second --- obeys the equations of classical theory of elasticity. The first part can be constructed in an explicit form. For the second part, boundary conditions are obtained. They have a form of the classical boundary conditions for the body under external forces on surface.

On the Simple Approach to Critical Phenomena Description

Simple field-theoretical approach to critical phenomena is described. In contrast to the Wilson's theory, a description in real 3-dimensions space is used. At the same time the described approach is not the same as Parisi's. Used subtraction scheme is different from the one used by Parisi, but the main point is that we treat changes of $T-T_C$ as explicit perturbations. By such an approach not only the critical domain but also the crossover from critical domain to domain of Landau theory can be described very simply. Consideration is restricted to scalar $ϕ^4$ model in one-loop approximation.

Flexoelectric deformation of a homogeneously polarized ball

The problem of finding the elastic strains arising due to the converse flexoelectric effect is solved for a case of uniformly polarized ball of isotropic dielectric material. The strains occurs due to the fact that, as shown in a previous paper, in presence of flexoelectricity elastic boundary condition has non-classical form.
